Abstrakt: 

The paper presents partial results of a long-term project involving research in the field of medical interviewing. The main goal of the project is to search for communicative strategies of doctors and patients that are capable of conveying empathy and trust. Via an interdisciplinary analysis, based on data excerpted from the most recent edition of the British National Corpus, the author attempts to bring quantitative and qualitative evidence that doctor–patient interaction has recently undergone significant modifications, resulting in the social redefinition of the asymmetrical roles of the main protagonists. The first part of the treatise focuses particularly on the communicative strategies of doctors, drawing attention to their questioning and responding practices.
